I hees were one on tne taritt , ior pro- I tiction, and so all differences were re- j loved, That was nice. But, like a irrp.it. 1eal that !Om'ea from John Sher-- man, it was false, i It was ; this very ohn Sherman who said, ' Anything at will beat down that party Dem- cratic)' and, u(W tip mir mentis jus- fiable in morals and in law."

" j lief ; THBEE CONVENTION S. t j There' are three conventions in ses sion,' or soon to be in session, in all of which the tariff is to b consid efed 7ne to meet in. New7 York; one is in session ' in Chicago, and an other, iii; Philadelphia. The last named recommends "such tariff leg? isiation as will be protective in char- acterl consistent in all its parts, &c. ? , - , , l, a It also recommends "an early and progressive reduction of internal taxes." It is manifest that the tariff must be altered to make .it "consis tent," but it has been apparent to most people; that its- "protective" features have been pronounced. Whether the Philadelphia meeting wants higher protection does , not ap pear.;; We look with favor upon its other ' recommendation. In four months the public debt has been re duced $55,000,000.
